Lord of Deception

The little shark sensed the breath on the cloud whale's baby teeth and felt the information contained in the halo, like gurgling water, moistening it tick by tick, and the little guy slowly calmed down.

The life of being on the run made the little guy wary of everything.

When she escaped to the sea area where the black ship was located, the high priest of the black ship had already led people to fight on land.

She really had no place to escape. After discovering that the sea monsters who were chasing her approached the black ship, and were sliced ​​into pieces by the black ship saints for barbecue, she decisively sneaked into the black ship and hid here.

She has been hiding here for more than a year. She drinks milk when she is hungry or thirsty. She has become familiar with the herd. She has become a little fatter from being thin and small.

No Black Ship Saint has ever discovered her. It was a rare and peaceful life until she was discovered again.

When she found out that the person who came was so powerful that it was completely impossible for her to match him, all that was left was despair and panic.

The halo of light escaping from the cloud whale's deciduous teeth was like the melodious roar of a whale, slowly soothing the little shark.

When the little shark calmed down, the old sheep and the others still stood far away, enough to make the little shark feel safe.

The little shark raised his head timidly and looked at everyone with his blue eyes.

The image of the old sheep in her eyes was the most terrifying, like a monster with cursed chains and evil aura, but that face did look kind.

Behind the Black Ship High Priest, it was more like darkness. There was a huge black shadow there, sleeping with its eyes closed. The thick ominous aura quietly turned into a soft giant bed, supporting the huge black shadow. .

These are the two most terrifying people Xiaomer has ever seen.

The little shark was watching, and the old sheep said in a gentle tone.

"Little guy, it's best not to look at people like this, it's not very polite."

The little shark was startled and immediately lowered his head, not daring to look any further.

Just because what she saw was always different from others, she was ostracized, brought trouble, and was hunted down.

The tribesmen who sent her to escape told her this before they died. This was not to blame her, but to let her learn to hide herself and stop thinking about revenge, so that she could have a chance to survive.

The little shark learned to hide himself and survived alone.

With the information conveyed by Cloud Whale, she began to understand a lot of things. At least she was sure that the person in front of her would not harm her.

Because she saw it herself, the other party did not have any ill intentions towards her.

The old sheep waved to the Black Ship Saints and asked them to go out first.

The high priest of the black ship didn't say anything, but took one last look at the little shark, feeling a little complicated in his heart.

I worked hard for several years without any results. When I gave up, I found that my target had already escaped to the black ship.

After leaving the cabin and closing the door, Yugu couldn't help but ask.

"High Priest, is there really something you can't see? Is it troublesome?"

"You didn't see anything? Didn't you hear anything?"

"No, I didn't see or hear anything. Who was senior talking to?"

"It's okay. The person we are looking for has been found. We can go back. You can go and get people ready."

Looking at the back of the fishbone, the Black Ship High Priest thought that the trace of power he had just sensed was extremely low-threatening, like a breeze blowing on his face, making him unable to think of any resistance at all.

When you do it deliberately, just a thought will dispel it.

Then I saw the little shark.

As for Yugu, he didn't see anyone or hear anything from beginning to end, as if he couldn't feel the existence of such a person at all.

Now, without the need for a token, they can be sure that the little shark is what they are looking for, the one who has awakened the bloodline of the ancient demon.

In the cabin, the old sheep took out some food and put it on the table. The little shark kept swallowing, but he still only took the smallest sesame cake, gnawed it slowly, and caught it with one hand. Eat the fallen debris.

Lao Yang couldn't help but smile.

When Yu Ziqing ate this kind of sesame cake for the first time, he was in the same posture.

Holding it with one hand, holding it with the other hand underneath, catching the falling crumbs, and eating very seriously, as if dropping the crumbs on the ground is a treasonous sin.

"Eat slowly, there's still plenty.

You'll be very safe here.

No one can hurt you.

I said. "

Xiaomeren's hand paused slightly, and his eating speed slowed down.

After eating, he curled up into a ball, lay down in the hay, and fell asleep. On his little nose, a bubble of snot swelled and shrank, but it didn't break.

The old sheep took one look and gave up the idea of ​​covering him with a blanket.

This little guy is so vigilant that he will still use his own methods to warn others even when he is asleep.

As long as there is a slight disturbance, the ridiculous snot bubble will burst immediately, and the little guy will wake up immediately.

The old sheep turned and left, thinking of the weak blow he had just felt.

I'm afraid this is the only blow this little guy can use to activate his bloodline power and surpass his limit at this stage.

Calculating the time, this little guy may have suffered a lot. He may have awakened the ancient demon bloodline after he was born.

It's completely different from Cloud Whale, who awakened the ancient demon bloodline when he was about to die.

It is also different from the Bodhi tree demon who has grown up and only awakened.

Originally, Lao Yang was in a hurry. After all, it took a lot of time on the road.

But now I have to stop for a few days to settle down this little shark.

After leaving the cabin, the Black Ship High Priest was already waiting in another cabin.

Seeing Lao Yang coming in, the Black Ship High Priest immediately said.

"Senior, do you want to trace the origin of this little shark?"

"Let's ask around. After all, unlike cloud whales, sharks all live in groups.

However, don't make it public, if people know that we are asking about the shark...

I'm afraid someone will know that this little guy is with us right away. "

"Senior, don't worry, I understand."

The Black Ship High Priest smiled and walked out of the cabin.

On land, the Black Ship Saint is quite helpless, but in the sea, it is different. He knows very well how to deal with things in the sea, including but not limited to strange things, sea tribes, ferocious beasts, monsters...

Walking to another cabin where rations are stored, there is sea water inside, but there is no fish or seafood. This is actually a place where some marine elixirs are grown.

"Jellyfish, I saw in the previous log that I caught some seafood from the past. Please go catch two more similar ones. I want to ask something."

"Okay." As soon as the jellyfish heard this, he knew what he was going to do.

Stepping out of the black ship, the jellyfish fell into the deep sea and disappeared into the dark seabed in an instant.

A few hours later, in an area with lush seaweed, Jellyfish held a patterned sea snake as thick as an adult's thigh with one hand. With a flick of his wrist, he shook the sea snake's joints apart and put it away.

One day later, the jellyfish returned to the black boat and dropped two large snakes, one flowery and one black.

“Those were the two types that were close to the black ship before.

I checked carefully and the breath was similar, so I asked.

They are not only of the same species, but also of the same race, and they all come from the same place.

They all accepted the mission and searched in the sea. "

The Black Ship High Priest looked at the two big snakes with their joints falling apart and said expressionlessly.

"I ask and you answer. Whoever answers slowly will be used to make soup."

"I won't tell you even to the death..." Black Snake said hard, but before he could finish his words, he saw a flash of light.

Before Black Snake could react to what happened, he heard the Black Ship High Priest say.

"First make a soup and use the snake blood to make fried rice. Keep the skin and process it to use as talisman paper. Keep the extra bones as materials for sacrifices."

Black Snake couldn't move and couldn't see behind him, but as he followed, he saw a black ship saint, carrying it with one hand. It looked like the back half of him.

Only then did he feel a huge pain, as if it was suddenly hammered into his skull.

Black Snake couldn't help but scream.

The high priest of the black ship looked at the black snake and said.

"Who are you chasing?"

The black snake didn't make a sound, but the flower snake on the side had already seen that in the distance, the black ship saint was already handling half of the black snake with ease. That method and proficiency were obviously not just done dozens of times.

This is an encounter with a ruthless human evil priest.

Before the black snake could speak, the flower snake immediately said.

"Chasing a shark, a little shark."

The Black Ship High Priest turned to look at Flower Snake.

"Tell me specifically, starting from the beginning."

"Not everything I know is correct, it's all what I heard."

"It's okay, just speak slowly."

"Then I said, if you can give me a pleasure, don't use me as a sacrifice, okay?"

The High Priest of Black Ship chuckled, his smile was particularly evil, and he was a little impressed by this flower snake.

According to the philosophy of the sea tribe, death is not the most serious matter. Being eaten is actually normal. It is like this every day in the sea.

They will think that this is still a cycle in the sea, just like the sunrise and sunset, the ebb and flow of the tide.

The most serious thing is being treated as a living sacrifice. They think this is a complete dissipation, being separated from the ocean and the root, and is the most terrifying end.

"Just tell me, I can promise you that you will not be sacrificed alive, and your bones will not be used for sacrifice."

The black snake was about to say something, but the jellyfish rushed up immediately, held the black snake's head and took it away.

Hua Snake was trembling with fear. From the look of the Black Ship High Priest, it didn't look like he was fooling him. These evil human priests would not make fun of the sacrifices.

"A few years ago, legends appeared in the sea, saying that the Shark tribe could find the holy mountain of human scholars.

Then, someone from the Hai Clan found out that someone in the Shark Clan could see traces of the Holy Mountain.

There is a little shark who can see things that others cannot.

The clan leader bribed a shark, held an object, and tested it.

Confirm that the little shark can indeed see different things.

We went to arrest people..."

Hua She hesitated for a moment and did not continue.

"Then what?"

"Then... then several tribes appeared at that time and destroyed the shark tribe together, but the little shark still ran away."

"Tell me about that holy mountain. Why are you looking for the human race's holy mountain?"

"It is the holy mountain of those scholars.

Actually, I don’t know much about it, but I have seen monsters coming from the land.

After that, rumors about the Holy Mountain began to spread.

It is said that the source of power for those scholars who cultivate the Qi of Haoran is in the Holy Mountain.

They can't be found. If we find them and defile the holy mountain, no one will enter the sea again.

This is what the patriarch said. I don’t know what it is more specifically. "

"Is there anything else?"

"No, we are just following orders."

The Black Ship High Priest waved his hand and asked people to take the flower snake down.

"Keep your word, remember, don't use this guy for sacrifice."

The Black Ship High Priest looked to the rear, and the old sheep walked out of the darkness, holding a book in his hand.

“There are many things in the classics given by Ji Shen that are quite detailed.

According to the legend spread in Fudosen Dynasty.

The so-called holy mountain means that a foreign land fell to the ground and turned into Beacon Mountain.

In the holy mountain, strange power is deposited. Monks cannot enter and evil priests cannot get close.

For many years, it was listed as a forbidden area for monks, only mortals.

Later, there was a scholar who recited the classics under the holy mountain and felt awe-inspiring in his heart, thus pioneering this path.

That Beacon Mountain also became a sacred mountain.

But since then, the Holy Mountain has disappeared.

The scholar came down the mountain, and the later Jixia Academy was established.

If the records in the classics here are correct, I compared them with each other and calculated the time.

It should be at the end of ancient times on the side of the Four Gods Dynasty, at the beginning of the Dadui Dingmao era. "

"Senior, I don't know much about this." The Black Ship High Priest looked confused. How could he know this history? The generations of Black Ship High Priests before him were all floating on the sea.

The detailed records on the black ship were all from a long time ago.

Lao Yang's face froze, and he felt a little bored. There was really no point in pretending to be with a group of illiterate people.

“I mean, around the same time that year, Jinlan Mountain also appeared.

The evil king back then fell into the wasteland together with Jinlan Mountain.

But later the evil king was sealed by Dadui.

At the same time, a holy mountain fell here, and monks cultivating Haoran Qi were attracted.

The awe-inspiring aura is exactly the opposite of the evil aura, the complete opposite.

This is definitely not a coincidence.

Moreover, I found that there are far fewer gaps in records here than there are in the Four Divine Dynasties.

They even recorded Wenjun, and there are still things written by Wenjun himself.

This is particularly interesting.

It's not a loss to exchange so many books for a small bottle of nectar.

I'm afraid most people don't have these books. "

After Lao Yang finished speaking, he looked at the illiterate people around him and felt bored. These guys probably couldn't understand what joy there was in obtaining those classics that had nothing to do with spiritual practice.

Lao Yang put away the book and thought, it's better to go back quickly.

Although Yu Ziqing was a little confused, he at least understood what he was talking about and knew the ins and outs.

"The Shark tribe has been destroyed, and there is nothing left. Let's set off immediately. Let the little Shark decide what to do next when she grows up."

The old sheep left the black ship and floated on the bottom of the sea. When he reached out to the black ship, one of his hands turned into a dragon's claw.

The black ship flew over, shrinking continuously until it became the size of a palm, and was put away by the old sheep.

The old sheep took one step forward and disappeared in an instant.

Finding the abyss crack covered by the seal again, the old sheep swayed, turned into dust, fell into it and disappeared.

…

In the Immovable Immortal Dynasty, there is a dense forest covered with miasma, and the sun cannot be seen.

Ji Shen and Wan Jun stood in an open space. The altar was arranged in front of them. Everything was done strictly according to the records on the jade slips.

"Wanjun, are you ready?"

"Is this...really okay?" Wan Jun was looking forward to but also worried.

"Try it and be sincere. After all, that person will definitely disdain to lie to me. I gave away all my collection of books. You must be sincere and don't make any mistakes."

Wan Jun took a deep breath, took out a small jade bottle, and took out about thirty drops of Ganlin liquid.

In accordance with the requirements of the ritual, she recited the mantra orally and made seals with her hands, and the ritual began.

An inexplicable charm emerged, and in the dense forest, rustling sounds came out. The sound became louder and louder, as if countless things were approaching.

Then, the forest trees were pushed aside, and a large number of hungry ghosts appeared with sunken abdomens, like skinny mummies.

Those hungry ghosts felt the call and almost instinctively understood what it was doing.

With the blessing of Ganlin, they seemed to see the original source of Ganlin.

A black figure with eyes burning with bloody flames poured out sweet rain from a wooden bowl.

Every drop of this rain is given by this person, and the ultimate goal is to give it to hungry ghosts.

As the donation ceremony began, Wanjun's eyes began to turn red, and evil and demonic aura emerged from her body.

It's just that the demonic energy in it, as if it had encountered a natural enemy, hid within the evil energy in fear.

But as more and more hungry ghosts gathered, Wan Jun gritted her teeth and stamped her feet, and saw dark chains flying out, tightly binding her in place, maintaining the ritual.

From her chest, wisps of black smoke flew out, which was the unwilling roar of the demonic thoughts.

The demonic thoughts that she could only suppress but could not get rid of flew out powerlessly at this moment, accompanied by sweet rain, and were eaten by those hungry ghosts who swarmed up.

When the demonic thoughts disappeared, only evil thoughts remained in Wanjun's eyes. She snorted coldly and suppressed the evil thoughts on the spot.

After a while, the hungry ghosts were full and slowly retreated into the forest and disappeared.

Ji Shen stood up and bowed.

"I'll study Gong Ji Deshou in Xiajixia, I'd like to thank you all for your help.

This is a gift from a friend. I will definitely return to the court to mediate and give you a place to establish yourself. "

The hungry ghost walking at the end turned his head and glanced at Ji Shen, said nothing, and disappeared into the dense forest.

Ji Shen sighed secretly, still feeling a little vindictive.

He had talked to the saint before, and it was recorded in the jade slips that the so-called King of Hungry Ghosts had fallen asleep long ago.

Those saints also said that they were the descendants of the King of Hungry Ghosts.

However, after seeing with my own eyes that Wanjun's deep-rooted demonic thoughts were eliminated, I felt that strange Taoist charm again.

Appearing out of thin air, separated by the deep sea, they can still act like the rules of heaven and earth, naturally allowing hungry ghosts to cooperate with the rituals.

He felt that the so-called King of Hungry Ghosts might be able to twist off his head and use it as a chamber pot while he was sleeping.

And according to the real dragon, there may be more than one or two of these hungry ghosts who are strong in protecting their shortcomings and holding grudges.

It's better to deal with it quickly. Fortunately, the court didn't go too far before.

To get rid of evil thoughts, this matter cannot be hidden, and the sweet rain is probably a big trouble, because there is too little...

"Wanjun, take the remaining Ganlin."

"No, you are always willing to give me such valuable things. Wan Jun no longer knows how to repay you. How can I dare to keep the rest privately?"

When Wanjun got rid of the evil thoughts, Ji Shen went to get it from the real dragon in person. She didn't know how much it cost, but she really didn't have any greed at all.

Ji Shen took a deep breath, patted Wan Jun on the shoulder and said sincerely.

"Wanjun, you misunderstood. If there were more of these things, I wouldn't worry.

But there were too few, and this matter couldn’t be hidden.

Who will it be given to and who will not be given it at that time?

What if I didn’t get it and became possessed and died?

You also know that those who will be able to show their composure at that time will either be in a high position or have great strength.

When the time comes, some people will be able to see through it, while others will not be able to see through it and will become grudges.

I can't wipe my face, and I don't know what to do.

Therefore, it is best for you to hold this thing, it will make you look bad.

After all, everyone knows you've always been this bad. "

"..."

The first day of the month...
